MATAPLANA CASTLE
Discover this ancient Romanesque castle which was originally a simple defense tower
This ancient Romanesque castle was certainly originally a simple defensive tower, modified over time until it became a true residence, dependent on the Barony of Mataplana. It was, among other things, the home of the famous Count Arnau, a mythical figure of the region's ruthless feudalism. There is also the church of Sant Joan de Mataplana, a former castle chapel dating from the 11th-12th centuries, and some remains of dwellings. To visit it, contact the Alt Ter organisation (✆ +34 972 72 13 17 - +34 686 11 33 44 or www.alt-ter.org).
